We only had dinner there at the Tavern it was excellent! We loved dinner. The room was tidy however no amenities like shampoos, lotion etc. the bed was hard as a rock made my hips hurt laying on it. Temps went from hot to cold back and forth. Very loud street noise however easily blocked out with my white noise on my phone. No refrigerator in the room that would have been nice with some waters, staff doesn’t offer any help with luggage. Other than those minor inconveniences the grounds were beautiful I love the artwork everywhere and all the interesting lighting. The trails weaving around the wonderful landscaping is just magical! I wanted to see the movie but no time.

A truly unique property made us feel as though we stumbled across a hidden gem. Staff were friendly and professional, regardless of front desk, bar, restaurant or housekeeping. Try it, you’ll like it.

Cool vibe and beautiful grounds. Love the grateful dead theme. We brought our dogs and that was a plus to have them welcome. The really only drawback was the breakfast service. It was actually terrible. Slow and unresponsive. The food was good when it came but the order wasn't as requested and took a while to correct. I also don't like the dark French roast coffee but that's just my taste. It would be nice to have a medium roast available as well.

Super fun, unique property. Family friendly options. Kids LOVED the pool. Adults loved the artistic flare in a historical location. Bonus points for free robes to walk across the lot in the chilly weather to the pool!

It's always been a fun place, and the various offerings there are a benefit. The mouldings, however, in my room, were very dirty and dusty. All else great.

A Must Stay for Fun & Comfort

Our room was spacious and bed was very Comfortable. The room had a great air/heating system and easy to operate. Shower was good and products were nice. The pool was large and a fun place to start off our morning! The property was beautifully decorated and easy to walk around. A map was provided at the hotel when we checked in. Even though this property was in middle of downtown, it was quiet and parking was easy.
Nice Room
The Principal’s Office is a bar only open on weekends.

I've been to quite a few McMenamins properties, but this one is my favorite. I LOVE all the plants and trees around the property. The outdoor fireplaces were really cozy, and the whole place felt magical. All the staff we interacted with were very nice. The food was great, too! I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We loved this hotel so much we stayed on the property and made full advantage of the surroundings. There is so much to see! The grounds are charming and well lit- we ate at 3 of the restaurants- had 1 vegetarian with us and she was able to find something interesting to eat at each restaurant. I noticed people strolling the hallways on several occasions to look at the artwork, history on the walls. This is a well done, friendly, non-cookie cutter hotel which will mesmerize everyone. I've stayed at another McMenamins hotel in the past and enjoy the originality of each! The lagoon pool is wonderful! We had a great time here.
